Look Up!

“If then you have been raised up with Christ, keep seeking the things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your mind on the things above, not on the things that are on earth. For you have died and your life is hidden with Christ in God.” Colossians 3:1-3

It seems the Lord is continually teaching me to look at people and circumstances through His eyes of love and though I sometimes find it difficult it is a lesson I know I must learn and one I truly want to learn. Do you desire to set your mind and heart today on the things above and unseen? I want to set my mind on Christ and on being Christ-like in every thing I say, do and think so I must ask Him daily to help me remember to look at the unseen, the eternal and the heavenly. I must ask Him daily to help me remember that I have died to self and that I have been raised up with Christ. He will help you to see things from His point of view today as well; just ask Him and look up!

We see different sights when we look up than when we look down or at eye level. Looking for the heavenly is much better than what the world has to offer - no wonder we’re to set our mind on things above.
